About bathroom resealing in W10

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We’re often asked to deal with a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across W10

In W10, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in Kilburn, Notting Dale and Kensal Town and well beyond. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. For any job in W10, joints are cleaned back properly before anything new goes in.

Kensal Town: Kensal Town is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For an older house near a landmark such as St Thomas Kensal Town, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Surface by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.

Basins & vanity units

Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Do not let bottles sit on the bead

Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

Landlord and commercial work in W10

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.

Leave it or put it right?

You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we will tell you.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Are they insured?
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • How the colour is chosen
  • What happens if the job turns out different

What sealant work cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

W10 questions

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.

How long will the resealing take?

It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes, we can. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.

How much does bathroom resealing cost in W10?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
